On this solstice, Friday, June 22nd, 2012, our lovely mountain Erpland burnt to the ground, taking with it all of our archives, photos, masters, studio equipment, artwork, a ton of instruments, the list goes on and on. We were really having fun making those posh re-releases with all kinds of new images and bonus material, but all that is going to be a lot harder to find now. I was thinking to maybe open a P.O. Box, where if people have old photos or recordings or various other mementos collecting dust they think we should have, then perhaps they could send them on when they have the time.

The Ozrics are now based in Colorado? I had no idea. Bummer about their Erpland! All of the destruction from these fires is pretty amazing. (Not that I've seen it in person or anything.) ------------- -- Frank Swarbrick Belief is not Truth. |

These fires are a tragedy for so many people and the environment. I was in that area several years ago and was awe-inspired by the beauty but saddened by the number of trees which had succumbed to whatever beetle it was that was infesting them. Entire forests had been killed off. I am sure the high amount of dead wood is a major factor with the fires all over the state.
It is a tragedy closer to our community here, of course, that the Ozrics have lost their Erpland. My heart goes out to you guys for loosing so much of your work, your labor of love.
